It’s very early, but we’re actually NOT off to a good start in the House

DEMS +1 so far.
GOP has 24 Seats
DEM has 4 seats (But one of the 4 had been a GOP seat)

Would I be the first to think that Fox news has dumbed down their election coverage? Seems the B team is in the chair.

okay, here’s an update on the Coons/O’Donnell story.

Here in Delaware, NOT A SINGLE VOTE HAS BEEN REPORTED. Local radio said NO vote totals to come in until 8:30!

And yet Fox just called it for Coons!

I have a possible reason.

In order for O’Donnell to win, Sussex county, a very conservative county to be sure but comprising only 1/5 of Delaware’s population, would have had to have a voter turnout of over 70%. Now I DID hear this a couple of times last week and frankly I either thought it was hogwash OR...no way would 70% of the populace come out to vote. Only in Iraq do this amount of people come out to vote.

Sussex county had a most amazing voter turnout, to be sure. Reports are that Sussex had a turnout of over 50%, somewhere between 55 and 60%....impressionable but 70% was the impossible.

Speculation is that the projected win of Coons is based on this for even as I type there has not been ONE vote reported in Delaware.

Sad. I’ll keep you posted on the percentages and such.

Hey folks, the media is calling a lot of these with little or no real numbers to base on. Even Mikulski was behind and they called it for her

So just hang on and let’s see how it all plays out!

Calm down. Its a given the GOP wouldn’t do well in Blue States...but we’ve retained all the Red State Senate seats we were supposed to and picked up two in ND and IND and won one Blue State seat in WI.

Jim Geraghty at NRO :
We will need to see some official calls, but so far, so good for Republicans.

Jackie Walorski is ahead by about 4,000 votes in IN-2.

Larry Bucshon is ahead by about 11,000 votes in IN-8.

Todd Young is ahead of Baron Hill by about 10,000 votes in IN-9.

Robert Hurt is ahead of Tom Perriello by about 11,000 votes in VA-5.

Scott Rigell is ahead of Glenn Nye, although there are only 2,000 votes in so far, and Keith Fimian is ahead of Gerry Connolly with even fewer votes in.

Morgan Griffith is ahead of Rick Boucher by about 5,000 votes in VA-9.

It’s possible some of these slip through the GOP’s fingers, but the trend is definitely the Republicans’ friend tonight.

UPDATE:

And, of course . . . YES HE HAS!

Unfortunately and very sadly they both won.
I will NEVER UNDERSTAND the majority of dimbulb voters in the Northeast.

SHAME ON THE DELAWARE VOTERS WHO ELECTED COONS.

SHAME ON THE CT VOTERS WHO ELECTED THAT SLIMEBAG LIAR Blumenthal.

It is only 7:15 p.m.....

We shouldn’t start seeing more stuff until 8 or so...let’s not freak out because there aren’t pickups yet.

It’s a little early to reach any conclusions, good or bad.

Polls are just closing. Exit polls mean nothing.

Tonight probably never was going to be as good as we wanted, but it’s going to be good nonetheless. Living up to that much hype is hard to do.

Dems are matching us take away for take away. Were we expecting to make most of our pickups in the West or are we getting skunked?

Mikulski (D) projected as winner in MD Senate race about 10 seconds

And the graphic shows her behind in the real returns. Sheese!

And they're reporting based solely on Hartford County which is only 44% for her. Where on earth are they getting their results... exit polls? This is going to be a long freaking night.

Coons was called with no votes counted, SO JUST WAIT AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

Yes I do agree with the general ignorance of voters in the NE, go figure

Damnit -- please post party affiliation with the results. For us unfamiliar with the candidates, we don't know whether the numbers are to be cheered or booed.
